Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

I don't have a choice most times, I won't let anything go to scrap if I can help it. I look more into the future not the present. Even if I have tons of parts in storage doing nothing, someday someone is gonna need them. Stuff is drying up fast. being on the east coast we don't have much good to work with, so gotta work with what you got. The way I look at it too is, if you do all new floors, you won't have to worry about it 10 years down the road. But with the timeframe I have to work with, I would be much further along with some things had I not stumble into metal work. But I do like it so its cool. Just wish I had more time. I'm not a snob when it comes to a project, I'm down to earth, I realize this stuff is over 60 years old and used for work. Thats why patina trucks are my favorite, they capture many years of hard work. alot of snobs don't see that. they want a perfect body to start with and or all one solid run of the mill color. Might as well all have a white house and fence too!!
